TREECYCLING
When we remove a tree, for whatever reason, we believe in trying to recycle the "waste" products so that they can live a second life. Not only does this reinforce a trees purpose but it also provides us with a reminder to what was.
Log Cabin
A property in Onkaparinga Hills required us to remove a large amount of Pinus radiata - Common Pine. Discussions with the land owner ended up with us constructing an authentic North American style log cabin, which the land owner has been enjoying ever since!
Treecycling Centre of Operations
Unfortunately a large Eucalyptus camaldulensis - River red gum had to be removed. Upon seeing beautiful, intact timber inside the trunk we knew we had to make the most of it. After the milling and drying process one of the slabs has now been repurposed into a desk in which I am typing now!
Custom Lamps
Trees are full of endless interesting features. When not being utilised by wildlife these quirks can easily become your talking points. A quick blowout, sand and installation of light bulbs and these hollow branches quickly became a clients favourite lamp.
Slabs
At the very least all it takes is a chainsaw attachment, at the most its transportation of logs to a milling site. Regardless, if the timber of a downed tree is desirable and workable, it will be harvested.
Firewood
At the very least, if the timber is not particularly aesthetically pleasing or workable, the timber can be used for a raw purpose, to keep us warm, to cook our food, to comfort us.
Mulch
When we process trees, most of the foliage ends up going through the chipper and becoming mulch. Mulch is probably the most under-utilised tool in an arborists toolbox, capable of improving the health of underperforming trees. Truely a humble hero.
